Server :: Uninstalling LAMP Components - Various Config Files And Made The Setup Unusable
Mar 22, 2011
I am slowly learning Linux by bringing up a server. Using tasksel, I installed the LAMP-server, which went fine. Now, however, I have mucked about with various config files and made the setup unusable. I'd like to do uninstall all of the LAMP packages and do a clean (and more thoughtful) install. Here's the problem: tasksel returns an "aptitude failed (100)" error. I have search various forums and all of the help related to this error (which I can't actually find *explained* anywhere) is related to installing packages. I tried them anyway, without success. man pages and the stack of manuals I have don't seem to be of much help either.
- describe what the error message means?
- a way to remove the packages or the config files by hand?

I recently installed Ubuntu 9.04 and later it got updated to 10.04 via automatic upgrades.
Previously, I having Windows. My HDD had 3 partitions. I installed Ubuntu in the C drive of Windows partition, left D drive as it was (in NTFS, because it had crucial data), and wanted to extract some part of E to be used as Swap. I marked E to be used as swap, but it took all of the drive as swap space, and later when I corrected it so that it takes only 2 Gigs and went ahead with the install, it made that partition unusable.
Maybe because it doesn't allow more than 4 physical partitions.
I am attaching two screenshots of Disk Utility results and Disk Part too.

I have had a good look round the forums but cannot come up with anything quite like this and the problem prevents me from using my NAS box and stuff is starting to stack up on my main PC now...
I have a Dell desktop running Ubuntu 9.04, a Shuttle running Mythbuntu 9.10 and a Netgear ReadyNAS Duo, all of which worked fine until this problem started. I have done nothing to any config files nor have I modified any settings from the outset, as far as I can remember I have just used everything as it came. This problem probably started a month or so back when update manager suggested a Samba update on both PC's which I accepted. I don't fire up my NAS box more than once or twice a month to back all my photos, music, video etc. so it was a while before I did (following the update) I could see the NAS and the Shuttle from the Dell but couldn't browse them I just got the error message 'Unable to mount location. Failed to retrieve share list from server' which I gather is all too common. I have searched around a bit on these forums and have tried a few things in the command line to gather information and I found something that worried me rather a lot. From Dell:
Code:
geoff@geoff-dell:~$ findsmb
*=DMB
+=LMB
IP ADDR NETBIOS NAME WORKGROUP/OS/VERSION
[Code]...
I haven't done any updates on the NAS box firmware so it can't be that and now I don't even see the shares in filemanager. What on earth is going on??? I know there are many other threads similar to this but but I am hoping that the slight difference might make this more obvious to solve. I forgot to mention that now I don't even see the shares in filedmanager - another thing that happened all by itself!

Basically I've made a right **** up of my apache2 configuration and I just want to un-install apache2 and re-install so I can start again.
I've done research on this but the guides have always been for people installing using "apt-get" or "rpm" packages. I've tried these methods but nothing has worked.
The way I installed lamp was from selecting it in the different options when installing ubuntu-server from disk.
Is there any way I can do this through the terminal and not through synaptic, only reason being is that I'm ssh'ing across a local network.

I am a total noob with regards Linux so will undoubtedly frequent this board asking some lame questions in the coming weeks. At present I am trying to setup a LAMP Server on an old desktop machine I have lying about, however there is not going to be a keyboard, monitor or mouse attached beyond the installation process. My question simply is am I best installing the server or desktop version of Ubuntu for this requirement?
I have been playing with Desktop 9.04 and found it tough to use headlessly, however understand that Server 9.04 fully supports headless access. Being a newbie I do prefer to use the GUI to make changes and generally play around, so a UI such as GNOME would be essential. Having read about I understand the best way to access remotely is to install SSHServer and VNCServer and then login over SSH and VNC into the box.My remote machine I will use to connect to Ubuntu is a Windoze 7/XP machine.

I started over combining the first parts of this guide: [URL]..ubuntu8.04 (Only the first few parts in terms of configuration and naming). Then I used this guide: [URL]..Surprisingly enough all steps worked.
1. Now I need to set up LAMP servers with MySQL master/slave replication and Apache rsync.
2. Next i need to add BIND to both my Load Balancers with master/slave backup and replication...
Are there any guides to look at to follow on these? Can tou point me to the right direction for BIND with replication.

All rc.inet1 an rc.wireless scripts work well if a wireless extension is on wlan(x). My notebook has Intel Pro 2100 wireless adapter (the ipw2100 module). By the system the card is marked as eth1. If you have a look at rc.inet1(.conf) you see that by default an eth1 has no wireless extensions. how to set up my network.

Code:
It works! This is the default web page for this server. The web server software is running but no content has been added, yet. so i create a phpinfo.php file and inside it is
Code:
<?php phpinfo();?>
but instead of displaying php information, it tries to download the phpinfo.php file. why?

I am sure this is merely a permissions issue, but unfortunately trying everything I can think of as well as google-ing has not provided me with a solution. Just for reference, my desktop and server are both running Ubuntu 10.04, with their respective Desktop and Server distributions.
I can remotely connect with SSH to my server, but I can't edit files (or at least the files I am trying to edit) remotely. I can connect remotely and edit them with VIM, but I would like to be able to use SciTE to modify the files. I am specifically trying to edit files under the /var/www directory, as well as the /etc/apache2/apache2.conf file.

I'm taking over as a Linux admin where they use sendmail last week. I've done very little with email on linux, and haven;'t touched sendmail since 2000 so I am really out of my element.Basically the sendmail server for many months has had performance problems, disk, and load.Looking into it I found this doing a tail on /var/log/MaillogAug 25 17:11:49 web8 sendmail[1531]: o7OGF2VH002566: to=postmaster, delay=1+01:58:10, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=2388694, relay=[xx.xx.xx.xx], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: [10.10.20.107]:No route to hostAnd that was all it was spewing, I edited the config files because xx.xx.xx.xx doesn't exist. And running m4, then restarting sendmail.It is still spewing out that message, but I do see some things connecting to the new yy.yy.yy.yy address. I even greped the entire /etc looking for the old machine.

I'm running Ubuntu Server 11.04 with OpenSSH, trying to create an ssh tunnel (for web traffic) to it from my (also Ubuntu) laptop. This is the command I'm using to create the tunnel:
Code: ssh -ND localhost:8080 george@192.168.1.20 I had it all working on a virtual machine.. which was deleted What settings/lines do I need to change/add from the default OpenSSH config files to get tunnelling to work? I've Googled and AllowTcpForwarding is set to yes, as is X11Forwarding.. but it still doesn't work. Chrome can connect to the server, but says the connection was closed before any data was sent.

Is leading whitespace significant in bind9 config files? This reverse lookup file (/var/chroot/bind9/etc/bind/zones/rev.168.168.192.in-addr.arpa) did not work; /var/log/messages had "zone 168.168.192.in-addr.arpa/IN: has no NS records".Inserting 3 spaces before IN in the NS line fixed it:
Code:
; IP Address-to-Host DNS Pointers for the 192.168.168.0 subnet
@ IN SOA CW8vDS.localdomain. hostmaster.localdomain. (
2011041901 ; serial
8H ; refresh
[code]...
Reading the man pages and netsearching, I did not find anything about indentation requirements except for "This is usually indented for readability, but the indents are required syntactically" here.Although the above file works, named-checkconf reports an error in it:
Code:
root@CW8vDS:/var/chroot/bind9/etc/bind/zones# named-checkconf rev.168.168.192.in-addr.arpa
rev.168.168.192.in-addr.arpa:1: syntax error near ';'
but named initialisation does not log any errors or warnings in /var/log/messages when processing this file except "/etc/bind/zones/rev.168.168.192.in-addr.arpa:2: no TTL specified; using SOA MINTTL instead".

I'm breaking my head on this.I want to create a development environment. This means that I want to be able to create/change files myself, but php should be able to do the same. I installed a lamp-stack using tasksel. Afterwards I installed phpmyadmin. So far so good. Going to http://localhost shows "it works".
Then I created a folder /home/hwc/www and created a new apache site called hwc, disabled default and enabled hwc that points to /home/hwc/www and has the directive AllowOveride All set. But when I go to http://localhost know I get a 403 Permission denied error. I've tried several trings like changing ownership of /home/hwc/www to www-data:www-data, to hwc:www-data, to hwc:hwc, but all to no avail. Even adding www-data to group hwc and hwc to group ww-data did not help. According to other posts at least on of these solutions should have worked, but it did not. I could probably fix it by letting apache run as hwc, but that doesn't seem right.

I�m kind of newbie trying to figure out a LAMP setup that will require as little maintenance as possible, and still be reasonable secure and maintained.After lots of googeling i think CentOs 5.x looks nice, the only problem is that i need PHP5.2.13 or later.If i add it from some 3 rd party repository it looks easy to install but what happens when there is security patches needed etc?I don�t like the idea of compiling it myself, I would probably get it running but there is always lots of do and donts that im unaware about to get it �right� not only �running�.

i am trying to set up LAMP on an old pc i have installed linux, apache, mySQL and PHP following this guide Installing Apache2 With PHP5 And MySQL Support On OpenSUSE 11.3 (LAMP) | HowtoForge - Linux Howtos and Tutorials. i have installed phpMyAdmin but when i try and acess it i get this error
Error
MySQL said:
Cannot connect: invalid settings.
phpMyAdmin tried to connect to the MySQL server, and the server rejected the connection. You should check the host, username and password in your configuration and make sure that they correspond to the information given by the administrator of the MySQL server.

I'd like to setup an Ubuntu LAMP server, and provide limited access to it for our in-house web developers/designers. I'm not quite sure how to go about the permissions side of things. Which user/group should "own" the /var/www directory? Is it www-data?
How do I create user accounts (for our developers) that have access to the /var/www directory - do I create accounts then add them to the www-data group? Or should I make a special 'webdev' group and give it access somehow?

I just got a new laptop for school work and I've loaded Ubuntu onto it without issue. Now I'd like to free up some space on my desktop to use it primarily as a gaming computer. I had Windows 7 installed long before I installed Ubuntu and I figured that uninstalling Ubuntu would be as simple as just deleting the hard drive partition but I can't see the partition in My Computer like I thought I would and when I googled how to do it I kept hearing people talk about Grub, which I have completely no understanding of. I just want to delete Ubuntu without harming the programs I have installed on my Windows partition.

I recently bought a second monitor and I had this set up perfectly fine with two panels on my primary display and one on my secondary. I've now gone away for the weekend (leaving the monitor) and I went to turn on my laptop and it didn't work.
When I login to a gnome session (or indeed a failsafe gnome session) I just got two horizontal white bars (where the panels would be). I switch to a terminal, login and run top and see that gnome-panel is on 100%. Running 'killall gnome-panel' does nothing (tried a few times).
I've had to install xfce4 just to type this message. Is there any way I can 'reset' gnome-panel or any other fix? Or even a workaround would be nice. I'm on 9.10 by the way. I am going to upgrade at some point but its not really an option yet.

I recently brought home an old Compaq server from work. I was told that it works fine. When I brought it home, I tried installing Ubuntu 9.10 server from a cd. While it's trying to install, I get the message "Installation step failed. An installation step failed. You can try to run the following item again from the menu, or skip it and choose something else. The failing step is: Load installer components from CD." I turned off the computer and tried it again several times. Each time the same message appears.
